Well, IMO, a scanner that has some kind of display on it would be the ideal. Because this unit has no display, there's no way to know how many items are on it or what you last scanned, but then again it's a relatively inexpensive unit. > I forgot to ask - - - are you doing this on a Mac or Windows platform?

It sends the text whether there's a field or not, the same as if you'd typed on your keyboard without being focused on a field. It works 2 ways: 1) without the cable connected, it stores scans and then dumps them when the cable is attached 2) with the cable connected, each scan is dumped immediately OK, enough [OT] for the list. Back to more important Rev matters.
